Fashion Designers Association of Nigeria (FADAN) estimates the nation’s fashion industry to be worth about 10 billion USD (about N1.55 trillion) in 2014. NAN reports that the Textile, Garment and Footwear sub-sector currently accounts for about 0.47% ($380 billion) of Nigeria’s rebased Gross Domestic Product. But according to a recent PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) report, Nigeria’s fashion industry is expected to grow from the $4 billion USD high it was in 2014 to $8.1 billion in 2019, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.1%.
Management Frameworks for a Sustainable Fashion Organisation
The following are the major areas that must be developed for growth and sustainability:
Corporate profiling that clearly defines the Vision, Mission, Core Values and Brand Essence of the firm. The individuals, group and organisation as a whole must be on-boarded, trained and orchestrated to reflect this. All of this must translate into the corporate culture.
Development of a Business Plan that is constantly updated with practicability to reflect the organisation as a going concern.
Development of Standard Operating Procedures, embedded in an operations plan.
Automation of its core processes through an ERP software, backed by a strong surveillance and audit mechanism.
